Monday.....moving along

 So many Mondays....so many promises to begin on Monday.  However, today I will just keep on keeping on.  I'm on day #4 of really good nutrition and exercise and I have to keep telling myself that nothing happens overnight.  It takes time.  It takes what it takes.  If I am consistent and keep at it, day by day I will begin to see the result.  Meanwhile, the results of my self esteem and feelings of self power and self respect are worth the price even without weight loss.  Still, I know that will come.  I lost 80 pounds, proof that I can do it.  I will lose more beginning now and have dreams of Christmas being a time when I can enjoy being at my goal weight....thoughts of going to Florida in February and loving wearing summer clothes again and walking, swimming and  feeling strong.  Everything about my life today is the sum total of the choices I have made.  When I want more or want something different, all I need to remember is that I have the power to make better choices and the reward will come.  I did my stretches this morning, walked Hershey for one hour all the way round the golf course and soon Pat will arrive so we can do an exercise routine in the pool with our weights, enjoy a nutritious lunch and spend the afternoon together.
